N64 picture quality between board revisions

I looked at the composite output between 2 boards... one with the VDC-NUS chip and one with the MAV-NUS chip, and noticed that the MAV-NUS was much worse. This is with using the same TV and video cables. I mean we're still dealing with composite video which isn't the best to begin with, but I was surprised to notice a difference. Anybody else noticed this?

On a side note, I did just finally do an RGB mod to my 64 and used the Retrovision SNES component cables... and that looks way better.

Interesting observation. The video for that system is so appallingly bad, every little bit must help. I did the RGB mod on my old console as well and it helped quite a bit. But it still has the worst video output of any console I've ever played. Its sad.

Yeah I went into it with realistic expecations. There's certain games where the upgrade is more worth it/noticeable than others. But if the textures are pixelated already in a certain game, an RGB mod won't fix that.
